Experiential Learning Scholars
Center for Engaged, Learning, Teaching & Scholarship launched the Experiential Learning Faculty Seminar Series for Loyola’s faculty to build strategies in teaching experiential learning courses and enhance their own pedagogy.
The scholars deepened their teaching practices, and learned how to engage community partners in the classroom through a series of ongoing workshops and a culminating syllabus project. These faculty participants are wonderful examples of the ongoing dedication to the art of teaching and learning and dedication to excellence in learning for our Loyola students.
